This book proposes an innovative conceptual framework to explore
cultural organizations at a multilateral level and cultural
mediators as key figures in cultural and institutionalization
processes. Specifically, it analyzes the role of Ibero-American
mediators in the institutionalization of Hispanic and Lusophone
cultures in the first half of the 20th century by means of two
institutional networks: PEN (the non-governmental writer's
association) and the International Institute of Intellectual
Cooperation (predecessor to UNESCO). Attempting to combine cultural
and global history, sociology, and literary studies, the book uses
an analytical focus on intercultural networks and cultural transfer
to investigate the multiple activities and roles that these
mediators and cultural organizations set in motion. Literature has
traditionally studied major figures and important centers of
cultural production, but other regions and localities also played a
crucial role in the development of intellectual cooperation. This
book reappraises the place of Ibero-America in international
cultural relations and retrieves the lost history of key secondary
actors. The book will appeal to scholars from international
relations, global and cultural history, sociology, postcolonial
Studies, world and comparative literature, and New Hispanisms. The
